list_bl would crash with BUG() if we used it without locking.
dm-snapshot uses its own locking on realtime kernels (it can't use
list_bl because list_bl uses raw spinlock and dm-snapshot takes other
non-raw spinlocks while holding bl_lock).

To avoid this BUG we deactivate the list debug checks for list_bl on
realtime kernels.

This patch is intended only for the realtime kernel patchset, not for
the upstream kernel.
